Water does not appear fit for drinking - contaminated with worms. Cistern basement is cracked and leaking since Feb 2008, tap broken, drainage pipe flag broken. Users collect using bucket from open manhole

Poorly protected, water appears contaminated. Users enter collection chamber / secondary reservoir to collect water by dipping jerry cans in. Spring overflows in wet season but decreases in dry season so that yield does not satisfy demand

In need of maintenance as all taps on public tapstand currently drip or flow continually, causing much wastage and ponded water in drainage area. When washing basins get crowded people sometimes open manhole in public tapstand chamber and wash inside causing contamination. In rainy season spring overflows though small hole in collection chamber - not sealed properly. Misuse of taps has caused many breakages in past

Collection chamber is poorly protected (no manhole cover) and appears contaminated. Users use water now only for washing and collect water by dipping jerry cans directly into chamber. In rainy season flood water and sediment enters chamber. Dry in dry season.

Collection chamber is poorly protected (manhole is open) and water is contaminated, during rainy season flood water and debris enters chamber. Users dip jerry cans directly into chamber to collect water - potential for contamination. Critical shortage of water in this area so users drink water even though unpotable

Poorly protected as collection chamber manhole is open (no cover) and water appears contaminated. Users dip jerry cans directly into chamber to collect water. Water levels drop in dry season making it difficult to collect water

Poorly protected as collection chamber manhole is open (no cover) and water appears contaminated. Users dip jerry cans directly into chamber to collect water. Supply pipe to public tapstand is positioned too high so became dry when functional at times

Poorly protected - collection chamber manhole is open (no cover) and water appears contaminated. Vulnerable to flood waters entering. Users dip jerry cans directly into chamber to collect water. Supply pipe to public tapstand is positioned too high so became dry when functional at times

Construction of borehole caused entire area to become wet and marshy (flow of artesian GW). Necessary to re-settle village 2km away in 2006. Users wash in and animals drink from ponded water in borehole area - contaminated. Borehole is very productive but reservoir not large enough for demand (long waiting time for water)

Water quantity

Poorly protected - no manhole cover so vulnerable to contamination. Users dip jerry cans directly into well. NB Initially set up for gravity distribution system but failed to flow, 2 children have died falling into well

Poorly protected - no manhole cover so open and appears to be contaminated (especially in rainy season). Debris in water. Users dip jerry cans directly into well - potential for contamination. Water has bad smell and taste (salty)

Water quality

No hydrochemical data, likely to be unsafe as poorly protected. Llikely to be brackish and mineralised

Low yield and high demand. Pumps sand - trapped by screening pump tap with fabric. Pump has broken several times and takes months to get spare parts. BH regularly runs dry after pumping 1-2 months and need to wait for a few weeks for recharge.

Unprotected, demand very much greater than supply. Unprotected and polluted by organic debris and dead animals in rainy season, turbid. Water levels fall in dry season, unsafe construction lead to two women being killed last year by rock fall when trying to excavate deeper. Need for yearly re-excavation due to ingress of sand during rainy season.

Cistern is poorly protected - no proper cover and debris / insects sometimes fall in and contaminate. Yield does not satisfy demand; dry in dry season - school feeding program has been suspended in the absence of a water supply - urgently needs maintenance

Overpumping due to high demand causes boreholes to dry up regularly, especially in dry season causing serious water shortages at all public tapstands. Users store water in uncovered drums due to water shortages. Pump has broken several times, recent problem with generator. Water tastes salty

Reservoirs poorly protected (manholes open or not sealed properly), water is apparently unpotable - contaminated. Pipes to one reservoir are completely blocked by debris and reservoir is dry. Basement cracked and leaking in both reservoirs

Reservoir is poorly protected - manhole is open and contaminated by debris, water is apparently unpotable. Both taps missing, water collected directly from manhole - potential for contamination. Reservoir has started to crack and leak a little

Poorly protected and polluted with worms, unlilkely to be potable. Reservoir basement has cracked and is leaking, only part of the roof system is functional as pipework is disconnected. Yield does not satisfy demand, tap is leaking

Cistern poorly protected (open manhole) and appears contaminated. Users now enter manhole to collect water, only use for washing and cooking as contaminated. Pipe work is leaking allowing sediment to enter cistern, surface water ponds on surface of cistern

Cisterns poorly protected as no manhole covers - appear contaminated (worms breeding). Dry in dry season, gutters are disconnected in some places. Critical water shortage in area - yield does not satisfy demand

Well is poorly protected (manhole has no cover) and water appears contaminated. Yield does not satisfy high demand. Well has become somewhat silted up, users access water by dipping jerry cans in. Water level falls a lot in dry season and users enter well to access - potential for pollution. Wild animals drink from well at night

Poorly protected - no manhole cover and vulnerable to contamination. Low yield, overloaded by high demand - yield is not enough for users. Handpump appears to have previously been installed then removed (unknown reason). Bad smell.

No functional taps; users collect water that flows continually out of overflow pipe. Lots of ponded water in area which is used for washing, leading to pollution. Occasionally spring dries up for about a week (both in wet and dry seasons, twice in last 2 years) - creating a superstition that this is caused by bringing jerry cans to the spring, so users collect water in keel and transfer to jerry can out of sight. When spring dries this is preceded by gradually decreasing flow
